Ever revisit a project a day after spending an ungodly amount of time working on it and just asked yourself “Was I drunk”? Needless to say that I came home from work last night, went to finish up my animatics and was completely unhappy with several of the scenes and how I blocked them out. So I was up until 3:30 in the morning revamping several major portions of my project. Things like adjusting camera angles so that the whole little sandbox is visible during the ships decent so that it reads better when the ship is flying out of control around the yard (When you see the animatics it will become clear). Once I was finished I added the score to adjust timing and I must say that I am very happy with it. Would have turned it in, except I noticed that the scene where he sucks up the beach ball doesn’t read as well as I want it too, so a final adjustment tonight And I will finally be done. Yay!!!!
Anyway I would have given up if I had not found the dope sheet editor as it let me move an entire scenes worth of key frames around to accommodate my new ideas. Very simple too. So all in all it looks like my final running time is going to be right at 2 minutes without the ending credits, whew, luckily I already told my ids that I am going to have to hijack their computer for rendering to get this finished on time :)
More later…
